LIST OF COMMUNITY FOREST LICENCE TENURE APPLICANTS

[The following information released on October 4, 2004.]

In response to our September 20, 2004 letter to Forests Minister De Jong, wherein the B.C. Tap Water Alliance requested information on (1) the list of Community Forest Tenure applicants, and (2) for information to identify which of the applicants include domestic/community drinking watershed sources in their tenures, we received the following list.  We have divided the list we received into five organized categories: showing four provincial regions and First Nations.  The second part of our request will be forthcoming.  For more information on present Community Forest Licence holders, general history and related matters, refer to the BC Ministry of Forests website, www.for.gov.bc.ca/hth/community.
